August 29, 201411 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Aug 29, 2014 -> 01:40 PM) The 5th overall pick in the draft would be nice. Sox would be guaranteed 1 of Bickford, Aiken, Matuella, Cameron, or Kirby. There are some other good HS players too. sat is going to hurt. I want Bassitt to win so much. but DAMN it.
August 30, 201411 yr Author Tonight the Sox gained a game on.... Texas, Arizona, Boston, Cubs. Sox have moved up the #8 pick. Sox are 7 GB of the #1 pick, and 4 GB of the #4/#5 pick.
August 30, 201411 yr Sox at this rate will be lucky to win 10 games the rest of the year. Probably 8-10 games. So where does that put them? A lot of you will be thrilled at that kind of finish which is coming.

August 31, 201411 yr Tied for the fourth worst rs/ra allowed differential in the majors. Tied with the cubs for the 7th worst record...picking 8/9 in the first rnd.

August 31, 201411 yr The only thing that can make this day even better, DV and / or Danks traded as well, and for some serviceable prospects.
September 2, 201411 yr Author I was a little busy the past couple days, but the Sox series vs. Detroit kind of screwed us a little. Sox now fell back to the #9 pick. Back to 9 GB of the #1 pick, and 4 GB of the #5 pick.

If you're going to do this...can you also tell how far they are ahead of the 12th pick/lose their draft pick if they sign a FA slot?

September 4, 201411 yr Author Pulling for Arizona to win. Tonight's loss will allow us to gain on like 3 teams.

September 4, 201411 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 4, 2014 -> 03:56 AM) Going to leapfrog the Cubs tonight. Also, closing the gap on the Astros. Ugh. Have the Cubs passed the Sox as best team in the city? Yikes.
September 4, 201411 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 3, 2014 -> 09:43 PM) Ugh. Have the Cubs passed the Sox as best team in the city? Yikes. Certainly the most entertaining/exciting right now. You've got Hendricks and Wada, Arrieta showing ace stuff, Rondon, then the three new dynamic players in Alcantara, Baez and Soler. On the other hand, Rizzo and Castro are out, but they've been playing much better baseball overall the last 2-3 weeks. We've basically got Sale/Abreu, Eaton and Avisail...and those who get excited about Semien/Sanchez at-bats. And watching Alexei play defense. Edited September 4, 201411 yr by caulfield12

September 4, 201411 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Sep 3, 2014 -> 09:47 PM) Tallest midget contest, my friend. Tallest midget contest. They've definitely won the "media war" the last 6 weeks. Whatever that's worth. Not that it's a surprise at all...with the writers having had to wait 2-3 years to finally see these guys. Meanwhile, the White Sox (wisely) decided not to bring up Rodon, just as the Cubs have apparently decided with Bryant, who also has Boras as his agent. Honestly, I'd say the Bears, D-Rose and Baez/Soler have won the media war, moreso than the Cubs as a team. Edited September 4, 201411 yr by caulfield12
